AB Liquid−liquid equilibrium (LLE) phase diagramshave been determined, by means of the critical opalescence methodwith a laser scattering technique, for the mixtures 4-phenylbutan-2-one + CH3(CH2)nCH3 (n = 10,12,14) and for benzyl ethanoate +CH3(CH2)nCH3 (n = 12,14). The systems are characterized byhaving an upper critical solution temperature (UCST), whichincreases with n. The corresponding LLE curves show a ratherhorizontal top and become skewed toward higher mole fractions ofthe polar compound when n is increased. Calorimetric and LLEmeasurements show that, for mixtures with molecules with a givenfunctional group, interactions between aromatic molecules arestronger than those between homomorphic linear molecules(aromaticity effect). This has been ascribed to proximity effectsarising from the presence of the polar group and the aromatic ring within the same molecule. Proximity effects become weaker inthe sequence 1-phenylpropan-2-one >4-phenylbutan-2-one >1-phenylethanone and are more important in benzyl ethanoate thanin ethyl benzoate molecules. Values of the critical compositions and temperatures calculated with the DISQUAC groupcontribution model are in good agreement with the experimental results. Accordingly, the shape of the LLE curves is alsocorrectly described by DISQUAC.
